We have been a key partner in a number of large European grants specifically examining the interaction between technology, society, and social innovation, as well as exploring social network dynamics for collective awareness.
Division staff has supervised a wide range of projects some of which have entailed partnership with non-academic user groups in the domains of:
Policy sociology – health, education, youth, environment, influencing public policy, communities, and professional practice.
Criminal justice – influencing policing and criminal justice stakeholders.
Media, arts, and cultural industries – centering on digital design processes, media educationalists, artists, and curators.
Collaborations exist with criminal justice and policing researchers through the inter-university Scottish Institute for Policing Research (SIPR), the Scottish Informatics and Computer Science Alliance (SICSA), and media educationalists through the Association for Media Education in Scotland (AMES).
Our research programmes will prepare you for a rewarding career as an academic and researcher, as well as opening up opportunities for a diverse range of careers outside of academia, for example, in formulating policy.
